Well, personally, I'm not sure I don't prefer the standard buttons myself (the standard buttons look better when both are unlit, IMHO). But if you wanted lit buttons or wanted to replace the buttons in a Multi-Williams or Q-bert or Sinistar, the new buttons totally rock!

Would it be possible for example, to supply clear buttons in blue bezels? That way they would still look cool when not lit (not that all clear ones wouldnt rock) and then would look even more incredible when lit.

ooh.. I like that idea too!

They look absolutely awesome, far better than I expected. I'm definitely going to have to build a lighted panel now. Damn more expense!
With regards to whether you should sell them with microswitches or not, can you give us some approximate prices with and without before a decision is made?
I bought some pushbuttons from IL a while ago and they were extremely cheap and came with Cherry microswitches included. If I'd persuaded IL to sell me the buttons without microswitches I'd have saved a little money up front but probably ended up spending far more in the long run by having to buy overpriced microswitches separately from someone like Happ.

Man you just sold me with that clear one. You really do need to light up the other colors too though. It's kinda hard to decide now because we've seen a clear one lit with a blue, but what about a blue lit with a blue, and what about a blue with a white? I suggest you take 3 pictures:
Picture 1) Buttons each with their respective LED (blue - blue, clear - white)
Picture 2) Buttons each with a white LED (see how they light)
Picture 3) 4-6 clear buttons, each with a different colored LED in it. This may sell the most of them. If the clear ones look as good with red LED's, Im sold.
I just realized, Im gonna have a sweet panel! Translucent joysticks, most likely lit the color of the player; Clear buttons lit red or blue, as per the player; My lighting plan where if a joystick is pressed up, a light turns on an up arrow kinda thing;
OMG I CANT WAIT!!
